My photo stream for the photo library on external drive?

Similar Questions

• I copied the photo library on external drive, and that one photo now shows despite the file being 70 GB.

  I had a library in iPhoto on an external HARD drive, and it worked. This is a disc plu so I decided to replace it with a new one that doesn't take much space on my desk. I copied the library through an external DRIVE to another drive, and it seemed to work. However, it now shows that a single photo despite being listed in the file manager as containing more than 70 GB.

  I explored a bit further in the file using finder and preview and found many files sorted by date. The photos seem to be all there, but they appear in iPhoto when I switched to this library. Always only one picture appears.

  I decided to convert the copied pictures from iPhoto library and it took a lot of time to convert, but the converted library always display just a single photo in Photos when I switch to this library.

  I could import all of them individually, but it's a big enough job, if there is a way to get libraries to work correctly.

  Any suggestions?

  We need the details - what format is the drive? How is it connected? It serves a TM backup Volume? How you copied the library itself? The library still works fine on the old drive? anything else you can tell us which could help a total strange who don't see you help?

• Problem of Protection for the TB 2 Canvio external drive

  I have a Toshiba Canvio external hard drive 2 TB and close unexpectedly, he asked protection in writing about himself. I use Windows XP and for about 6 months, the device worked as expected.

Can you please tell me how to remove the write protection, so I can continue to copy, write, delete, etc.

  Are there anyone out there with a solution to this problem. If you have pleeeeese let me know.

• The drive letter for the files on my external drive does not match the designated letter MyWindowsApp, after briefly changing pots

  On my Windows 7 laptop, I briefly moved an external hard drive to a USB port to another and then back.

  The reader is referred to as F, as it was originally, but since the temporary move the path for some files now show that E.

  I went to disk management and confirmed that the drive is detected as F.

  This disrupts programs such as Adobe Premiere Elements. It always hurts new information loaded in the disc I load that is in F, but the said path E. The file is clearly on record.

• Move the folder of Photos on an external drive

  Hello my MacBook Air is near capacity. I'm going through iTunes and Photos on an external drive to free up disk space on the internal drive. I searched the threads and found the right solution for iTunes. I moved the entire iTunes folder to the external drive. Then, in the Advanced tab of iTunes preferences, I made the file to the new location on the external hard drive. That worked very well.

  Now, I'm ready to try the same process with my library of Photos (which also includes years of photos iPhoto migrated). Can I move the folder full of images (as I did with iTunes) or simply pictures library on external drive? My suspicion is the entire pictures folder, because it also contains the migrated iPhoto Pictures folders, Lightroom, Adobe and Photo Booth also. After searching for the discussions, it is not clear to me how to do it with pictures.

  Thank you

  Jon

  You can move either; Once completed, launch Photos with the key Option key, click library and choose the one on the external hard drive. ITunes library should be moved in the same way rather than change the setting in the preferences.

• How can I move photos from a Photo library on my Mac to a library of photos in an external drive?

  I have 10 GB of photos in a photo library on my Mac Air, which is running out of storage space. I would like to move the photos to another library of Photos in an external drive which already hosts most of my photo archives. How can I execute the move?

  Thank you!

  Marco.

  Copy the library from the internal drive to the external drive. You can then open the library on the external hard drive by double clicking it and check, if the copy does not work.

  Photos has no tools to merge libraries. You can use both libraries alternating, or export the photos of a library and import them into the other library.

  Or use the application PowerPhotos to merge the two libraries move photos from one library to another.

  You will need the full version and paid f PowerPhotos to do.

• Cannot open the Lightroom catalog on external drive

  Please excuse the screen name. I tried so much to during registration, but they were all taken while I was sure that it would be available.

  I'm moving from a PC to a Mac laptop.

  I copied my drive whole photo on an external drive, which is what I use with my laptop. My catalogue and photos are stored on this external hard drive and when I try to open the catalog, I get the following error:

  Lightroom does not start with this catalogue. It is on a network volume or a volume on which Lightroom is unable to save the changes. But I have no problem opening an image in Photoshop so I know not the files being copied in a readable format.

  Ideas?

  Hi somedaymetalkpretty

  I suspect that your external drive is formatted with the NTFS file system, which is normal for Windows, but impossible to write in Mac. You will need to use an external hard drive formatted to FAT32 if you want to use in Windows and Mac.

  Beat

  PS: I guess that your catalog (.lrcat file) does not exceed 4GB, otherwise you would have a problem with FAT32.

• Can I format my recovery disk if I copied the recovery on an external drive?

  On my Hp computer, I noticed that my recovery was almost full.  So I copied it on an external drive.

  My question is; Can I format my recovery if I copied the recovery on an external drive?

  Hello

  No, you can't.

  And reading this on the recovery partitions:

  It is supposed to have the files it contains, because it contains the files to reinstall the operating system.

  Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

  1. If you want to reinstall Windows from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

  F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

  You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

  2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

  Also ask them how to make records.

  Your D: Recovery Drive is should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

  There are backups on an external hard drive.

  To resolve the problems that have arisen with the recovery D: Partition, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove all that has been added to it.

  See you soon.

• I have an ERROR CODE 36 during the backup of my library of PHOTOS from one external drive to another. What is the best way to solve this problem? Also, what is someone used 'dot_clean '?

  I have a MacBook Pro that is primarily used for PHOTOS and use 2 external drives 1 for holding my PHOTO library and one for the back up. I have about 1 TB of data of photos. My back ups have worked perfectly since the establishment more than 12 months ago. However, I just got a CODE of ERROR - 36 problem which prevents the backup after that about 700 GB of data has been processed. I need to find a solution and I was wondering if anyone can advise me on that. I saw something called "dot_clean" on the web and I was wondering if it is safe to consider option.

  If the Photos or iPhoto is running, exit it and try the backup again.

• I copied the folder iPhoto to my 'images' on an external drive and all photos disappeared both external drive and the iPhoto library. Do you know where they are?

  Hello! I have a big problem!

  I copied the folder "Images" that is default in my Mac on an external drive.

  Inside the 'Images' folder, there is the iPhoto folder.

  When I reopened iPhoto, all photos disappeared from the iPhoto library and the external drive. I left alone with very little, very old photos.

  Do you know where my pictures maybe? Photos in iPhoto has also lost all the flags...

  Thank you in advance for the answer...

  Julie

  What software (name and version) are you using? What format is the EHD? How is it connected? What exactly did you do step by step

  Bottom line is that correctly copy a package does not remove anything so you did something wrong and we need to know exactly what you have and what you have done to help

• How to migrate pictures from iPhoto Library on external drive to the Photos?

  I deleted my computer today and try to import photos from a backup Time Machine, in Photos. I find the iPhoto library and clicked on "View the contents of the package" to reveal a bunch of files. I'm currently moving the entire iPhoto library on my desk, but it's more than 100 GB in size, so I was wondering if there is a more direct method? (All photos are stored in the folder 'Masters'? Could import from there?)

  Please if someone could help me with this I would be very happy! Sorry for the ambiguity in my formulation of the question and happy New Year! Thank you in advance.

  To migrate the iPhoto Library from a backup Time Machine pictures use Time Machine to restore the iPhoto library to a folder on your Mac. Then drag the library restored on the Photos icon in the Dock to open the iPhoto library. Photos will create a library of Photos transferred from the iPhoto library with all your changes, titles, captions, keywords, assigned albums. If you try to import the folder of masters you will only import the photos, but lose the structure of the library and all your work that you did in iPhoto.

• Photos will not open the iPhoto on an external drive, already "migrated" library

  I moved my iPhoto to an external drive library, updated, then "migrated" photo library with the drive connected. Once I opened the Photos without the drive connected, and there is a library 'Photos' of 9 seemingly random photos. Now, the pictures will not open the old library with the drive connected. Is there a way to change the pictures in the library accesses?

  Here's the disclaimer that I get: the contents of the iPhoto 'iPhoto Library' library has already migrated to the Photos.  Open the Photos to display your library or use a compatible version of iPhoto to open the iPhoto library.

  (But it does not open the library on the external hard drive).

  Photos of the Lauch with Opiton maintained key pressed if you get this window:

  

  Search and select the library located on the EHD and click Choose library.  The location of the selected library will appear just below the window.

  

• photo library mobile problem drive ext

  I moved my library on an external drive by following the instructions in the previous discussions, I copied the library on the external drive and then re-launched photos, hold down the ALT key then selected the library copied. Then, I put the copied as the library system and active re iCloud library library. but then I got a message saying I have available insufficient storage in iCloud. my library is close to 600 GB, and I'm on the 1 TB storage plan. Looks like photos trying to load the entire copied photo as a new library library. is it possible to stop this and to recognize the copied the original library, because I don't want to upgrade my storage iCloud simply to have 2 copies of everything in my library like I don't want to have to wait for 600 GB to download to get the library on the mac back in phase. I think I might just start a new library system on my mac and then download icloud, but I don't know if I'm doing this that I lose all the info from faces that I added to my existing library.

  While we're on the subject of the faces there at - it a way to sync on devices that I have this library on my mac mini and also I have the photos app on my macbook pro synchronized in the same photo library and but iCloud account info "faces" does seem to not copy on iCloud, is this correct, and is it possible to synchronize the faces

  Thank you

  Mike

  Don't you can't stop it and it will not download everything but is checkin to be sure, the library is in sync - nothing will be duplicated

  Yes, you can start a new library and Yes you would lose your face albums but keep the tags face making re more quickly - identify and when OS X Sierra came out Photos will manage faces totally differently, but until the software is released, no one knows exactly what it will include or how it will migrate

• How to copy events in a library of photos on an external drive

  Hello I need to know how to copy events in a photo library on an external drive.

  I have OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

  Thanks for the help

  as the pictures has no events which is not possible - and you cannot copy to a library of photos to another library - you can export to a library and import in another library or you can use PowerPhotos to move photos between libraries

  What exactly do you have and exactly what you want to accomplish?

• iPhoto and photo library on hard drive storage

  

  I'm trying to free up space on my HD, and I've got this huge 'other' file.  Further investigation, it seems that he might actually reflect my pictures on my computer, despite photos apparently only 12.42 GB of space.

  But then my pictures folder contains 80,21 GB of data.  So, the 'library of Photo migrated' iPhoto said he composed 24.96 GB.  And the photo library makes 53,11 Go.  Can I delete the iPhoto library (is it a duplicate because it was migrated?)

  

  Yes. But you claim back so much space that you think that both applications share the masters BLAH common to both pictures.
